Course Description



"Learning specialists and educational therapists offer additional services over tutors, and they are paid more for their expertise. In fact, it is a both respected and rewarding profession that can lead to a comfortable, 6 figure income." - Dr. Erica Warren





How can this course help you?

This course is designed to help you create, establish, network, and profit from a private practice as a learning specialist or educational therapist. Although I have extensive training in special education, educational psychology, school psychology, psycho-educational assessments, and adult education, this did not prepare me for starting my own practice. In fact, 90% of the materials and methods I use in my own private practice and share in this course are from trial and error, reading, online courses, networking, workshops, and my direct experience working with thousands of students, families, teachers, schools, and universities over the past 20 years.

Learning Specialist, Educational Therapist, Author of Educational Materials and Course Creator

Dr. Erica Warren

Dr. Erica Warren is an educational therapist, learning specialist, and executive functioning coach, but tells her students that she is much like a personal trainer for the brain and a magician because she offers fun exercises and tricks to make learning both fun and memorable. She is an avid blogger, vlogger, and podcaster and offers over 150 popular educational publications at Good Sensory Learning that include multisensory lessons, games, and activities for professionals and parents that help learners strengthen areas of weak cognition or academics while kindling a love for learning. She also presents teacher training courses and has a full-time practice in New York, Learning to Learn, where she empowers students of all ages to maximize their learning potential. Aspiring to empower “out of the box” learners, Dr. Warren created a degree program that united coursework and research in the fields of School Psychology, Special Education, Psychology, and Adult Education. With a full assistantship at the UGA Learning Disability Center in neuropsychological assessments, she pursued a doctorate that focused on life-long issues in learning, special education, the impact of learning difficulties across the lifespan, and comprehensive diagnostic evaluations. In addition, she earned a full assistantship with the National Science Foundation while working towards a Master's degree in Educational Psychology. Dr. Warren often refers to her bachelor’s degree in fine arts, “as my secret weapon, as it brings joy, color, and creativity into my sessions.”

I loved the way it was systematic and effortlessly clear to someone with my background in special ed. The technical issues were more difficult for me because I am not as computer savvy as I would like to be. I need to go back now and fill in some of the details that make more sense to me after I completed the whole deal, and take more notes to use for reference. I would have liked to have a complete handout at the end, that helped me review some of the concepts. I feel a little stuck on how to create my website as I have never done this before, but with some help I will get there.
